When Does SSA Work to Determine Triangle Congruence?
Your learners will make good use of the Socratic method in a collaborative task that begins with an assumed solution and ends with deeper understanding of the idea of determining two triangles congruent.

Why can't We Use SSA to Prove Triangles Congruent?
Students investigate triangles and congruences. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between inductive and deductive reasoning. They differentiate between similar and congruent triangles.
